Gemcom Software International Inc, the largest global supplier of mining software solutions, has announced that Eurasian Natural Resources Corporation PLC or ENRC will implement Gemcom Surpac™, Gemcom GEMS™, Gemcom Minex™, Gemcom Whittle™ and Gemcom MineSched™ throughout its global operations.
ENRC is one of the world's leading diversified natural resources groups, performing integrated mining, processing, energy, logistics and marketing operations. ENRC's production assets are largely located in the Republic of Kazakhstan, with other assets in Africa and Brazil.
Mr Patrice L'Huillier VP operations at ENRC Kazakhstan said that "We are pleased to be adopting Gemcom software as our new corporate global standard. We've had a positive experience working with Gemcom and have been using its software at a number of our operations around the world for several years. While we also looked at other mining software vendors as part of our selection process, Gemcom's global reach, product quality and service offerings were best suited to our needs as a producer of diverse commodities with global operations. With Gemcom, we have the tools and support that will help our mines meet productivity objectives."
ENRC's corporate agreement with Gemcom will provide its mining operations with access to the software which best addresses the needs of each type of commodity ENRC mines. It will enable the company to benefit from a wide breadth of software capabilities which span geology, mine planning, optimization, and scheduling. Gemcom will also be delivering services and training to ENRC, ensuring that its mining teams worldwide realize the software's full capabilities. As part of software implementations, Gemcom will assist ENRC by identifying and documenting process improvements which will streamline and improve work and data flows.
Mr Andrew Pyne SVP at Gemcom said that "In partnering with ENRC, we will provide software and services which will play a key role in unlocking efficiency and profits. Our solutions will help ENRC's operations improve vital profit drivers such as grade control and scheduling, as well as give the company new tools which will allow its staff to complete work in less time. ENRC will also be able to rely on our support teams around the world, and with a significant number of staff located in Kazakhstan, our new office in Almaty will be working closely with ENRC."
